Salinas stressed that those four years were very precious because we often think about how to maintain brain health when we are adults, and after losing a lot of time already to develop healthy habits for the brain, people take steps to reduce cognitive age or increase the likelihood of preventing the progression of Alzheimer’s symptoms Can, ”and this is important because the world has not yet treated the disease that affects memory, language, and decision.
